Schutzmittel gegen Laserstrahlung 7 0/14 Protection against laser radiation 7 0/14

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Schutzmittel gegen kontinuierliche und gepulste Laserstrahlung. The invention relates to a means of protection against continuous and pulsed laser radiation.

Laseranordnungen emittieren im Gegensatz zu allen bisher bekannten Energiequellen die gesamte Leistung innerhalb eines sehr kleinen Öffnungswinkels. Durdh Fokussierung der kohärenten Strahlung mit Hilfe geeigneter optischer Vorrichtungen kann die Leistungsdichte darüberhinaus erhöht werden und es wurden bereits Leistungsdichten erreicht, die um den Faktor 10 größer sind, als die mit der Sonnenstrahlung maximal erreichbaren Leistungsdichten. Laser sind deshalb neben der Nachrichtentechnik für die Bearbeitung von Feststoffen, z.B. zum Schweißen, Schneiden, Bohren und dergleichen interessant geworden.In contrast to all of them, laser arrays emit previously known energy sources the entire power within a very small opening angle. Durdh focusing the coherent radiation with the help In addition, suitable optical devices can and have increased the power density already achieved power densities that are 10 times greater than those with solar radiation maximum achievable power densities. Lasers are therefore used in processing alongside communications technology of solids, e.g. for welding, cutting, drilling and the like have become interesting.

On the other hand, because of the high power density, it is difficult to protect people, tools, apparatus and the like against unintentional or even intentional laser irradiation. The protective means against laser radiation that have become known are rigid walls made of refractory metals or ceramic materials , which are difficult to handle because of their great weight and are not suitable for protecting moving objects.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, Menschen, Werkzeuge, Apparaturen und dergleichen vmit nichtstarren, gewichtsmäßig leichten Anordnungen gegen Laserbestrahlung zu schützen. Wirkungsvolle Schutzmittel gegen Laserbestrahlungen sind riach der Erfindung aus flexiblen Graphitfolien bestehende Schirme • und Anzüge. Die überraschende Wirkung von erfindungsgemäßen Schutzmitteln beruht vermutlich darauf, daß als Folge der Anisotropie von Graphitfolien - die Wärmeleitfähigkeit bei Zimmertemperatur beträgt in W der Folienebene 10 bis 20 W/sec giri, senkrecht zur Folienebene weniger als 0,1 W/sec grd- im Brennfleck des Laserstrahls übertragene Energie vorzugsweise parallel zur Folienfläche abgeleitet wird, wodurch die Energiedichte nicht mehr ausreicht, Kohlenstoff zu verdampfen.The present invention is based on the object of protecting people, tools, apparatus and the like with non-rigid, light-weight arrangements against laser irradiation. Effective means of protection against laser radiation are, according to the invention, screens and suits made of flexible graphite foils. The surprising effect of protective agents according to the invention is presumably based on the fact that, as a result of the anisotropy of graphite foils - the thermal conductivity at room temperature in W of the foil plane is 10 to 20 W / sec giri, perpendicular to the foil plane less than 0.1 W / sec grad in the focal point The energy transmitted by the laser beam is preferably diverted parallel to the film surface, as a result of which the energy density is no longer sufficient to vaporize carbon.

Nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sind auf Werkstücke flexible Graphitfolien, die Ausnehmungen aufweisen, als Masken angeordnet, so daß nur die Werkstückteile unterhalb von Ausnehmungen durch Laserbestrahlung abgetragen werden. Die flexiblen Graphitfc folien bestehen nach der Erfindung aus bindemittellos verpreßtem expandiertem Graphit, der nach einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung durch eingelagerte Graphitfasern oder -gewebe verstärkt ist.According to one embodiment of the invention, flexible graphite foils that have recesses are on workpieces, arranged as masks, so that only the workpiece parts below the recesses by laser irradiation be removed. According to the invention, the flexible graphite foils consist of no binding agents compressed expanded graphite, which according to a further embodiment of the invention by embedded Graphite fibers or fabric is reinforced.

Die mit der Erfindung erzielbaren Vorteile bestehen insbesondere darin, daß Schutzmittel nach der Erfindung durch einfaches Biegen den Formen der zu schützenden Gegenstände anzupassen sind und der Schutz von bewegten Gegenständen und Menschen durch gewichtsmäßig leichte The advantages that can be achieved with the invention are, in particular, that protection means according to the invention can be adapted to the shapes of the objects to be protected by simply bending them, and the protection of moving objects and people by means of light weight

Schirme oder Anzüge möglich ist. Durch erfindungsgemäße Masken" wird bei der Bearbeitung von Werkstücken mit Laserstrahlung vor allem die zur Einrichtung der Laseranordnung erforderliche Zeit vermindert. Umbrellas or suits are possible. Using masks according to the invention "is used when machining workpieces with laser radiation mainly reduces the time required to set up the laser assembly.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden beispielhaft beschrieben. The invention is described below by way of example.

Naturgraphit mit einer mittleren Teilchengröße von 0,1 mm wurde nach einer Behandlung mit Salpetersäure durch kurzzeitiges Erhitzen auf etwa 800 expandiert und dann ohne Zusatz von Bindemitteln auf einem Walzwerk zu Folien, deren Stärke 0,1 bis 5 mm betrug, gepreßt. Die flexiblen Folien wurden zu rechteckigen Schirmen zugeschnitten und mit Laserlicht bestrahlt. Mit einem kontinuierlichen Kohlendioxid-Laser, dessen Leistung 100 W und dessen Brennfleckdurchmesser etwa 1 mm betrugen, waren zur Durchbohrung einer 0,1 mm'starken Folie ca. 3 see erforderlich. Folien mit einer Stärke von 2 mm konnten mit dieser Laser-Anordnung nicht durchlöchert werden.Natural graphite with a mean particle size of 0.1 mm was obtained after treatment with nitric acid expanded to about 800 by brief heating and then without the addition of binders pressed on a rolling mill to give foils with a thickness of 0.1 to 5 mm. The flexible foils were cut into rectangular screens and irradiated with laser light. With a continuous Carbon dioxide laser with a power of 100 W and a focal spot diameter of around 1 mm, Approx. 3 seconds were required to pierce a 0.1 mm thick film. Foils with a thickness of 2 mm could not be perforated with this laser arrangement.

Weitere Folien wurden mit einem Rubin-Laser, dessen Impuls-Leistung 40 kW betrug, bestrahlt. Während zum Durchlöchern einer 2 mm-starken Folie 3 bis Impulse erforderlich waren, gelang es nicht, in Folien mit einer Stärke von 5 mm Locher herzustellen. Die Folien wiesen nach der Bestrahlung lediglich kleinere, blasenartige Wölbungen an der Oberfläche auf.Further foils were irradiated with a ruby laser, the pulse power of which was 40 kW. While to perforate a 2 mm thick film 3 until pulses were required, it did not succeed in Making foils with a thickness of 5 mm hole punch. After the irradiation, the foils only showed smaller, bubble-like bulges on the surface.

Eine 5 mm starke Folie wurde dann mit einer feinen Nadel durchbohrt, auf einem Lagerstein aus Rubin angeordnet und mit der gleichen Leistung erneut bestrahlt. Dabei verdampfte der Rubin in Verlängerung der Bohrung, wodurch ein glatter, dem Bohrungsdurchmesser entsprechender Durchbruch entstand.A 5 mm thick sheet was then pierced with a fine needle and placed on a ruby jewel and irradiated again with the same power. The ruby evaporated in extension the hole, creating a smooth breakthrough corresponding to the diameter of the hole.

Zum Schutz von größeren Werkstücken und Apparaturen erwies es sich als vorteilhaft, die erfindungsgemäßen Folien durch Graphitfasern oder Graphitgewebe mechanisch zu verstärken. Zur Herstellung von verstärkten Folien,., nach der Erfindung werden auf mit Kunstharzen, z.B. Furanharzen oder Phenolformaldehydharzen, beschichtete Graphitfasern oder -Geweben expandierte Graphite ein- oder vorzugsweise zweiseitig gewalzt oder gepreßt.To protect larger workpieces and equipment, it has been found to be advantageous to use the To mechanically reinforce foils with graphite fibers or graphite mesh. For the production of reinforced foils,., according to the invention are coated with synthetic resins, for example furan resins or phenol-formaldehyde resins Graphite fibers or fabrics, expanded graphite, rolled or pressed on one side or preferably on both sides.
